I'm very excited about my SCM rankings: http://www.usms.org/comp/tt/toptenlist.php. I got in all 9 sprint events for the first time ever! I hope to replicate that in yards this year; we'll see if I fit everything in.

I was looking ahead at events at Nats. Three of the events I wanted to swim are on day three. That won't work for me. So it looks like I'll be swimming the 50 breast on Friday. Sunday is 100 back/50 free/100 fly. Should I swim 50 free or 100 fly? I'm leaning toward 50 free, which means I'd have to swim 100 fly at Zones untapered. At least I won't be fighting the triathletes for that event.

Teen Fort is off to watch Ledecky and Congor at Metro Champs. Wish I could watch, but Lil Fort has a soccer game.

Did I see you grabbed 10 TTs? And #2 in the 1500. Great SCM season for you.

THat was a nice 1500 he did...and may I say I did set a nice pace for him till the 800 point when I shut down my race last year. I remember being a headcase that day since I was nearly crushed in a machine at work, and wasn't sure about my future job status at the time...though everything worked out ok.

Thanks guys. Yes, that 1500 worked out ok. Two top tens in one race for two of us. (At least two of us. Not sure about the others in that heat, like Alpha Centauri who did backstroke.)
